yay!

i have news!!!!

my friend isaac (i'm sure most of you know him) ask me to flat with him and nadia next year. i say flat but i really mean... house. it's this place in fielding, pretty close to town. it's a gross colour on the outside, but apparently roomy (we haven't actually gone to see it yet) and cheap for three people. so i'll probably be moving there mid january, which will be my third move in less than a year :O

hello!

  • got a 'job'. i'll be getting $60 a week minimum for mowing lawns and maybe more if other stuff comes up
  • i can stay here and i don't have to pay board and mum will buy my food so long as i help out around the house
  • other than that not a lot has been going on. uhh we put up the christmas tree yesterday! no decorations yet though
  • we have a huge new table in the courtyard and we moved a lot of stuff so now there's tonnes of space and we're going to turn it into a kind of outdoor lounge
  • today I downloaded the original age of empires game. it's so weird! i've forgotten how to do a lot of stuff cause it's been 3-4 years since I last played
  • I learned how to make bread today and I also made a chocolate cake, which everyone loved
  • also mowed three lawns in 25 degree heat! not fun
  • on wednesday night I went to a pub quiz and got to ask a round of questions. then we (me, jess, keryn, james and isaac) went back to james' house and had a doctor who marathon
  • that's it I think
  • yay
